Looks like a 2nd gear shift fork from the pictures but it doesn't actually specify which one it is. I suppose the solid pin is better for drag racing but I haven't heard of problems with the OEM forks in street use except the pre 2005 4th/5th fork.

That shift fork and the 2nd gear upgrade, ( which lessens the gap between 1st and 2nd gear ) are more for race applications, although V&H does in fact sell a street bike application for the 2nd gear upgrade. I'm currently running it in the 1430cc motor that they built me for my V-Rod Bagger.

That being said they didn't want to install it when I had the motor built. They felt it wasn't required.

i priced the stock shift drum kit and all three shift forks and shifting shaft for just over 500.00 hopefully when i open it up i don't run into a bunch of busted gears. i didn't find any metal in the oil or the magnetic plug so i m hopeing that is a good sign...

Hey guys I’m still pretty new here I have a 2016 V Rod muscle with an apk exhaust a topless KN AIR filter. a 26 tooth front puley and a Dino jet PowerVision with target tune. Today on the highway I was going about 90 miles an hour to keep up with the other guys in and my bike started to get hot...

I bought a 2006 night rod a couple months back and it was running great. Decided to take off the oil pan, trans cover, alternator cover. Water pump cover, and have it all powder coated black. When I reinstalled everything after powder coat the bike starts and runs but won’t go over 4000 rpm...

Hey crew.
For the last year on my 2006 VRSCR I would flip my switch to IGN and it would only half engage and I would have to wiggle it for the dash to come on.
I took the battery out to trickle charge it. Everything was fine. Today I put the battery back in. Even on “off” the front blinker...

Hey all. Seem to be developing a small leak on the bottom left of the rad. Couple of pics attached as to where. Seems to collect right at that screw or whatever that is. Any ideas if this is a hose or something more serious?
Thanks!
